What are the best foods to have on hand in case of a nuclear war?

I’m not worried about the end of the world in 2012 especially since I just Google-ed it (maybe just a smidgeon worried) and my Wikiman, Aniruddha Kumar, cleared it up for me.

Aniruddha is always there for me! He must have the middle-aged woman worrywart demographic because every time I ask a question whether it’s about a dead arm, a bloody eye, how to use nostalgia in a sentence, or if the world is going to end now that a 28 year old has a really cool new live action video game, Anirudda has my answer.

According to Aniruddha, “Professional Mayanist scholars state that predictions of impending doom are not found in any of the extant classic Maya accounts, and that the idea that the Long Count calendar “ends” in 2012 misrepresents Maya history and culture.” Furthermore, “Astronomers and other scientists have rejected the proposed events as pseudoscience, stating that they are contradicted by simple astronomical observations.”

So it’s settled, we are all going to live.

Nonetheless, I’d feel better if the guy on the right didn’t seem to be thinking loudly, “We are so dead.”

Aniruddha – My hero!

Some other questions I asked Anirudda:

Is it smidgeon or smidgeoned?

Is it Googled or Google-ed

Can a person die from a bloody eye?

How do you heat coffee up after you give your microwave away?

At what age is frumpiness considered a “glamour do?”Did you mean to search for: At what age is grumpiness considered a “glamour do?”
Yeah, that’s what I meant. Just let me talk to Aniruddha , he’ll know.

How do you pronounce nuclear?

This is the official Wiki answer– those Wikiguys have a sense of humor!

Okay, I have work to do before the world ends – I have a Web site to design; I keep telling the customer, you should check out WordPress – then you won’t need me (I am a brilliant business woman). I’m not coming back until I finish the guy’s site, so please feel free to leave a comment or opinion, but I’m sorry I won’t be able to reply. However, if needed, my friend Aniruddha is always available with a a well thought out response.

Any wittyness I would try to bring to this table would just there untouched attracting flies (like one of those pasta salads soaked in mayonnaise brought to an otherwise great bbq-spread – really, really hope I didn’t just offend anyone with this analogy, but really that stuff is gross)….

So I’m just gonna stick to a simple: This is HILARIOUS! I actually forced my (german!) boyfriend to mute the soccer game on TV and listen while I read it out loud to him (I might have to add that interupting a german guy’s TV soccer time is pretty much sacrilegious here, so I was risking eternal damnation or at least a lack in backrubs for next couple of days)

This blog is hilarious its 3:46am and I shouldn’t be laughing I’m supposed to be sleeping lol. I love the things you question. The coffee one is priceless and I’m not eating cockroaches ever. I am actually an under cover geek and watch Brad Meltzers Decoded on History Channel and he was talking about 2012. I personally am not worried I think its just typical of the world to try and scare humans smh and like the comment below where are these clownfaces when the world is still spinning on its axis? I can’t. Great post!

I have a soft place in my heart for the people who keep saying the world is going to end on a certain date and then it doesn’t. Isn’t that awfully embarrassing? What if they convinced a whole church-full of people to sell everything and sit down to wait. What do they say when it doesn’t happen? Oops!! Oh, I shouldn’t use that expression. I’m from Texas and that’s embarrassing, too.
